Arsenal closed in on the Premier League top four after a second-half goal from Emile Smith-Rowe gave them a 1-0 home win over Watford on Sunday in manager Mikael Arteta’s 100th league and cup game in charge.
The result lifted Arsenal one place up to fifth on 20 points from 11 games, behind fourth-placed Liverpool who lost 2-3 at West Ham.
Smith-Rowe netted Arsenal’s 100th league goal under Arteta as he drilled in a low shot from 18 metres after striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had missed a first-half penalty for the home side, who also had two goals ruled out for offside.
